• GATE gives a longer pulse, with a duration of the whole note length.
POLARITY works as the same parameter available when TYPE is set to TRIG.
LEVEL works as the same parameter available when TYPE is set to TRIG.
• CLOCK will send periodical pulses with a period synced to the sequencer step length.
CLK sets the clock division of the pulse.
VOLTAGE TRIM
It is possible to trim the CV out voltage levels. These settings are stored in the machine without being connected
to any specific Project. Adjusting these values is mainly useful if you wish to send pulses with very exact voltage
levels, or to generate very specific voltages as a linear value and you believe that the factory trim is off.
Make sure you have a good voltmeter before proceeding. Connect a TRS cable to the output you want to trim.
Connect the volt meter’s negative terminal to the sleeve of the connector. Connect the positive terminal to either
the tip or the ring of the connector, depending on the channel you wish to trim.
Each CV output has three trim settings. Begin by selecting 0 V, then press and hold the [YES/SAVE] key. 0 V is
output as long as [YES/SAVE] is held down. Use [ARROW] keys [LEFT] / [RIGHT] or DATA ENTRY knob A to
adjust the voltage until your voltmeter shows exactly 0 V. Repeat the process for both 8 V settings (the first one
is for continuous voltage, the second is for pulse).
Note that adjusting the CV does not actually improve CV pitch control. If you have set up pitch control of an
external synth properly then any linear error has already been compensated for by that calibration. In fact, you
will have to reconfigure the CV pitch control after changing the values in the VOLTAGE TRIM Menu, because
you will have changed the point of reference.
VOICE ROUTING
This menu item accesses the global routing of the four voices.
Activate/deactivate routing of any the four voices to the main output and to the FX track. Navigate using the
[ARROW] keys. Tick or untick box with the [YES/SAVE] key.
